New formulas for Maslov’s canonical operator in a neighborhood of focal points and caustics in two-dimensional semiclassical asymptotics. (English. Russian original) Zbl 1298.81091

Theor. Math. Phys. 177, No. 3, 1579-1605 (2013); translation from Teor. Mat. Fiz. 177, No. 3, 355-386 (2013).
Summary: We suggest a new representation of Maslov’s canonical operator in a neighborhood of caustics using a special class of coordinate systems (eikonal coordinates) on Lagrangian manifolds. We present the results in the two-dimensional case and illustrate them with examples.
